Guilin, Guangxi Zhuangzu
Untitled
as our local guide put it:
“Come to Beijing for the history. Come to Shanghai for modernity and commerce. Come to Guangzhou for the food. Come to Guilin to find beauty in nature.”
Guilin seems to exist in its own time frame. A little wistful, a little nostalgic—one of those places you would have just as much fun travelling through with friends or alone. (although logistically, without linguistic skills that might be taxing)
The best meal we had was at this little restaurant on a walk through the cultural village on cherry blossom island.
it was all guided tours, though, so not much for hikers, at least not the tours we did of caves and cultural landmarks.
